Tales of Ghrymatti I. Legends warned that Ghrymatti's third moon never brought good fortune, so with Veena about to reveal her mystic face for the first time in twenty cycles, many of the land's people were on edge. But no one could have suspected the invasion of Vindessa. Able to control the forces of nature with the power of her Crystal Element, Vindessa subjugates the people of Ghrymatti with the help of her sorcerer son G'Briel and her 'Black Cats' Army. In her lust for the throne, however, Vindessa makes many promises, some of which she did not keep. Will the deposed Queen Yehelyah and her family overcome Vindessa with the unlikely assistance of the mysterious Dragon Rider Nea'ss? Illustrations by Chris Froggatt.
